Expert Tips for Growing Ranunculus in Malta: Because Ranunculus grow from “corms” (which look like tiny claws), a little preparation goes a long way:

The Pre-Soak Secret: For the best start, soak the corms in room-temperature water for 3-4 hours before planting. They will swell up and “wake up.”

Claws Down: Always plant the corms with the “claws” or “fingers” pointing downwards into the soil.

Sun-Lovers: Choose a sunny spot. In Malta, they can handle full sun, but they will bloom longer if they have a little bit of shade during the hottest part of the afternoon.

Well-Drained Soil: They do not like soggy roots. Use a light potting mix if planting in containers.

Planting Depth: Dig a small hole about 5-7 cm deep. Space them about 10 cm apart for a full, bushy look.
